Abstract Because of the population increasing so high, and traffic density remaining the same, traffic prediction has become a great challenge today. Creating a higher degree of communication in automobiles results in the time wastage, fuel wastage, environmental damage, and even death caused by citizens being trapped in the middle of traffic. Only a few researchers work in traffic congestion prediction and control systems, but it may provide less accuracy. So, this paper proposed an efficient IoT based traffic prediction using OWENN algorithm and traffic signal control system using Intel 80286 microprocessor for a smart city. The proposed system consists of '5' phases, namely, IoT data collection, feature extraction, classification, optimized traffic IoT values, and traffic signal control system. Initially, the IoT traffic data is collected from the dataset. After that, traffic, weather, and direction information are extracted, and these extracted features are given as input to the OWENN classifier, which classifies which place has more traffic. Suppose one direction of the place has more traffic, it optimizes the IoT values by using IBSO, and finally, the traffic is controlled by using Intel 80286 microprocessor. The experimental results show that the proposed system outperforms state-of-the-art methods.

In modern life, we face many problems, one of which is the increasingly serious traffic jam. The cause is the large volume of vehicles, inadequate infrastructure and unreasonable distribution, and ineffective traffic signal control. This requires finding methods to optimize traffic flow, especially during peak hours. To optimize traffic flow, it is necessary to determine the traffic density at each time in the streets and intersections. This paper proposed a novel approach to traffic density estimation using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and computer vision. The experimental results with UCSD traffic dataset show that the proposed solution achieved the worst estimation rate of 98.48% and the best estimation rate of 99.01%.
